There are a few other brands not on the list...maybe someone can explain to me....legally, since they didn't ban ALL the manufacturers, why aren't all the banned guys suing the state of NY for this? Seems like this is exclusionary.

See the part in bold.

Realizing that the New York Safe Act may generate questions from gun owners and members of the public, a list of weapons that are classified as "assault weapons" are listed below. The new law places restrictions on the ability to purchase these weapons or to transfer them to another person. Under the new statute, those who lawfully possess these weapons prior to the enactment of this law must register them within one year of the effective date of the statute. This list is intended only as a guide and is not meant to be an exclusive, exhaustive list as there may be additional weapons that will also meet the amended definition under the new law.

If next week your house isn't on the market or your 2 week put into your job you are part of the problem.

I wish it could be implemented in reality the way it is in theory. If a small portion of every pro gun citizen moved from states like NY to states who are pro 2nd your voice would be heard and the cause stronger than living in a state where you are outnumbered 2-1. Your vote is simply not tallied there.

I'm wondering if a Sig 556 would still be legal. Even though Sig Sauier is listedin the AR manufacturers to be banned, the 556 isn't technically an AR15. It also is not specifically called out in the semi-auto rifle section.

It doesn't impact me at all, but just thought it was interesting food for thought.

Are they trying to enforce legitimate pocket carry only? Almost all pocket carry or single stacks are 6+1 or 7+1 pending the caliber.

Right. Basically any double stack mags would be banned. Single stack mags in either compact pistols or larger caliber full size (like 1911's) would largely still be ok, but in general, there aren't a ton of 7rd mags.

Really? My.45 sig 220 elite is basically a 1911, and has an 8 round mag. I haven't seen 1911s with less than 8 rounds, but I'm also not very well versed in 1911s.

I bought my first pocket pistol last month 6+1 308. I couldn't believe how quick I ran through a magazine at the range, wow. For concealed carry it is better than my XDm in the glove box but for home defense, not so much.

Full sized 1911 isn't going to have the smaller mags, but the smaller frames will. Sorry, should have been a little more specific. I was just painting some generalities anyway and used the 1911 as a possible example.

Yes, shooting carry guns at the range is annoying because I spend a ton of time reloading my mags. Then again, I don't shoot my pocket pistol at the range a ton.
